Not like the pictures. Property is old and small. The bathroom was tiny. The parking spaces were limited. The place needs a facelift.

The hotel was a little run down. I booked on line and it had a good rating and reviews, but the area was a little 😖. It’s right by a gas station that has some people sleeping or hanging around asking for money. On the plus side the price was great for Monterey!

Really enjoyed our stay. It's an older property but clean and close to the Wharf, shopping and dining. Staff was wonderful! Kind, helpful and very attentive. Parking a large vehicle is not easy in their garage (very limited parking above ground). We have a tall pickup and had to park underground and the clearance was literally ½ inch from the roof. I needed assistance in backing out of the garage for clearance and a staff member, Amal, stopped what he was doing and guided me through the I-beams and low hanging conduit. He was awesome! Would stay again, just drive a smaller vehicle. Ha!

A well maintained property. Sound travels through the walls, and the thermostat didn’t allow me to run the fan as a white noise to block out the plumbing, voices, walking, BIRDS, and traffic. The sound wasn’t loud, but it was always there. The bed and pillows at the Best Western (Santa Maria) were better.
